P.S. for Bags, much empathy. My list of non-tolerated (is there such an expression?) food growing ever longer.... Eggs have joined the list!

Good morning,thought I was organised yesterday (fat chance!) Drove to nearby village P.O. One woman campaign to keep rural P.O.s open AND they have a super little coffee shop attached so planned to drink coffee and stick on stamps (multi-tasking... hey). Reached for purse, NO purse, so had to drive back home to retrieve it..... hrmph!

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. Late this morning as I was awake half the night battling this flippin' cold. The sun is just breaking through in South Yorkshire, and the plumber is coming this morning to service the boiler. Second school run this afternoon. Have a good day, folks.

Good morning to you all, rather dark and damp here, a bit like my mood over the past few days. Not sure if I am suffering after the hip op, or whether it was writing the Christmas cards and realising how many friends are no longer here. I keep trying to cheer myself up with remembering the happy times we all spent, doesn't seem to be working at the moment, must try harder. Enjoy your days.

Good morning, overcast and quite dark but not cold. Day of sorting and tidying while DH collects car after respray, black ice accident a couple of weeks ago.
Went to Lakeland yesterday and bought some lovely strong Santa sacks for GC's presents and also a jar of pine smells to make artificial tree smell real smile

Good morning everybody- grey here in N Bucks but at least it has stopped raining. The motorways (M11, 25, 1) were a bit grim driving home after taking DD and DGS back to London, yesterday. Hope it stays dry.
Lucky you Rinouchka!! One of my favourite radio programmes!
Keep safe everybody and if anybody has a lurgy threatening, hope you shake it off before the BIG DAY.

Good morning everyone.
It's not quite daylight and raining in the Tyne Valley. I have the decorator coming shortly, to paint and paper in my dining room. The sooner it's finished the better. I have more furniture in my living room and hall than I know what to do with!
Hope today is kind to you all.

Good morning, everyone. Just beginning to lighten up to a grey, rainy day in London.
Off in a few minutes to brave the underground en route to BBC radio theatre to be in the audience of recording of Midweek with Libby Purves. Must be one of the last episodes.
Have lost habit of being on public transport this early!

Stay off the coconuts, thatbags! Have a good Tuesday one and all.

Good morning from foggy Colchester. Glad we got the decorations up yesterday as it looks like it's going to be a 'lights on all day' day.
Ironing, card writing, present wrapping, organising sort of day.

Good morning. Drizzling in Lancashire yesterday and probably today.
Went to wonderful carol concert at Manchester Cathedral yesterday evening. Feeling more like getting organised for Christmas now.
Have a good day everyone.

Morning, folks! Still very dark here but I've added a photo from yesterday morning. Looked good but unfortunately I spent most of the day in bed with frequent (and I mean frequent; I lost count!) trips to the loo. It seems, on the IBS scene, that even small amounts of coconut don't agree with me. This is odd as I used, long ago, to be addicted to Bounty bars. Bloody aging! Hey ho.

Morning all
There's a low mist across the marshes here in N Kent.
H and I both have a fasting blood test this mornibg so we will treat ourselves to breakfast at Morrisons after.

Morning Mick, Kitty and All. Pitch dark but seems dry and not too,cold in our corner of Somerset. Please, kitty, no talk of organised! Off for a hair cut at 9, then maybe an attempt at organisation, or not grin. Hope Tuesday is kind to you.

Morning Mick, you had me worried for a while! Morning all!

It looks as though it could be a little foggy in North Leicestershire too but it is still too dark to tell properly.

I've got a day of bitting and bobbing today. I am slightly worried as I seem really organised. I must have forgotten something vital. confused

Enjoy your Tuesdays everyone sunshine
